And Also to Clasp Alexandria and Inter

St. Paul & Pacific Extension Lines to
Push ed to Alexandria and from Crook
ston to St. VincentAll Rail Connection
"With Winnipeg in October.
Soon after the adjournment of the Legis
lature Messrs. N. W. Kittson, Hill, Ed
mund Bice and R. Galusha left for the
East upon business connected with the con
struction of the extension lines of the St. Paul
A Pacific road. These gentlemen returned
yesterday morning having visited New York,
Washington, Montreal and other points and
conferred with the Canadian parties inter
ested in the St. Paul & Pacific interprise.
While the legislation which was sought
for by the new owners of the St. Paul &
Pacific was pending, there were plenty to
say that no matter what laws were enacted
there would be no immediate railroad build
ing. In, common with all other citizens
these croakers will be glad to learn from the
GLO BE that they were mistaken. A GLOBE
reporter interviewed Mr. Hill yesterday
afternoon and learned that the result of the
trip of himself and associates was highly
favorable, and that work on the line from
Melrose to Alexandria, and from Grookston
to St. Vincent will be commenced at once
and pressed to an early completion. I is
expected that the cars will be running from
St. Paul to St. Vincent by October. By the
same peiiod the Canada Pacific will be built
from Winnipeg to the boundary line, and all
rail communication will thus be established
between St. Paul and Manitoba. This will
be a great event for both Minnesota and the
British Possessions. I links the two coun
tries together, and allies their interests still
more closely.
While the whole State is benefited by this
railroad development, St. Paul is the most
vitally interested. Anything which is done to
open the millions of idle acres in the north
ern part of the State, is so much added to
the trade of the city. There is no railroad
enterprise which we are so vitally inter
ested as this, and the permanent addition of
the British possessions, with another Pacific
road to our bailiwick, is a consummation
3reatly to bo desired.
There are thirty thousand Canadian farm
ers who will pour into the province of
Manitoba the coming season, each bring
ing from two to ten or fifteen thousand
dollars. They go into a choice farming
country and with the capital which they
bring will add incalculably to the wealth and
production of the country.
The line from Melrose to Alexandria may
not be completed as soon as the extension
to St. Vincent, but it will be ready to move
the fall crop. Th grading on both lines
being largely completed the work of placing
the in running order for trains will be very
much advanced.

A Card.
The Dispatch of this evening having gone
out of its track to shamelessly villify me, I
now offer my side of the question.
The deceased Mary Ann Dehn, upon the trial
in which I was the defendant, never testified
that I led her to believe that I "intended to
marry her, and become the legal father of her
child." On the contrary, she distinctly and
positively swore that the promise of marriage
I a.^L^S5SS^^fFiS^I?
as it was unnecessary, but it was of a nature
that would have put an entirely different com
plexion upon the matter, independent of all
legal "technicalities."
If the Dispatch had a spark of fairness with
in it, it would have ascertained those facts, be
fore traveling from the record in abase at
tempt to ruin me in my endeavors to gain my
daily bread. FRANK KESSY.

The raft news reporter of the St. Loui3
Times has learned that a St. Louis firm

Sauk Rapids, Minnesota.
The same authority says: Lumbering in
the pine producing regions, the past season,
has been of the most trying character, and
has been transacted at a much increased
cost above that of former years. The result
of the winter's work has been decidedly un
satisfactory. The Black River has banked
sixty million feet of logs at a cost of $10
per M., fully $2.00 and $3.00 more than last
year.

good wishes for his safe arrival on the other
side of the pond.
Mr. Charles Manship, who has been acting
for some time as assistant clerk in the district
clerk's office, yesterday concluded his coinect
tion in that capacity. To say that Mr. Man
ship, in all his official relations, was obliging
and prompt but feebly expresses his efficiency
in his late duties, and a whole world of weli
wisheis bid him success in his future.
The lamps received on Friday for the hook
and ladder truck were placed in position yes
terday on each side of the driver's seat, and
were lit for the first time last night. They are
extremely effective, and throw a wonderfully
brilliant light a distance of fully 150 feet.
They are also so arranged, that each, or both,
can be reversed, thus casting the light upon the
truck itself, a useful point when the truck is
not motion and at a fire. The truck and its
attendants have had some very narrow escapes
fiom collisions, owing to the meagre powers of
the old lamps, which the new deal will remedy.

Everybody knows that old settler Kellogg

but all hope that day may be long postponed.
But all this does not militate agaiust the fact
thae he is going up a little higher on his own

Both the play and the performance at the
Opera House last night deserved a better audi

and with such a cast and mountings, every
.seat from parquette to gallery should have
been filled. I is seldom a play is put upon
the stage with a more even representation.
Generally we have one star, of perhaps second
or third order, and it may be one fair support,
with the rest mere "sticks," but in this case
every member of the corps sustained the role
assigned most efficiently. The company is a
strong one, the ladies are unusually attractive
and well dressed, and the play is as absorbing
as was the "Two Orphans" on its first produc

Between seven and eight o'clock last night a
deuce of a row occurred in the house of one
Thompson, a half-breed, residing at the corner
of Ninth and Cedar streets. Charley Le Claire,
another half-breed, was the cause of the tem
pest in the tea pot. Le Claire whipped out a
knife, and chased one of the women round a
block or two, while the balance of the happy
family held the fort in Winter's store, corner
of Ninth and Wabashaw streets. Meantime,
Thompson informed the police, and Officer
Clouse nabbed the dusky wielder of cutlery.
On the march to the station, Le Claire thrice
attempted to draw his weapon upon the of
ficer, but clubs were trumps, and the would-be
slasher was landed in a cell, where he was dead
asleep when his wife called upon him at 9 p. M.
He'll think of his head in the morning.

fallen off 19,529 Machines.
